The new genre arm of The Weinstein Company, RADiUS TWC, will open Luis Prieto's flashy remake of PUSHER in Los Angeles and New York on October 26 followed by a national release.

PUSHER is a remake of the gritty 1996 Danish original by DRIVE director Nicolas Winding Refn.

Synopsis:As edgy and explosive as Nicolas Winding Refn's 1996 cult classic, this English language remake tells the story of a week in the life of FRANK, a big time drug pusher in London. Frank’s life is a fun-filled roller coaster of a ride that soon spins out of control.

Friendships start to vanish, there is no longer room for love within his life, and violence takes over. Danger and chaos are all around and he becomes a man trapped in his own world. Eventually Frank is left with no one to turn to and nowhere to go, becoming a man paralyzed with the fear of knowing there is no way of preventing his inevitable fate. Fast-paced, visually striking, witty and with some of acting's finest talents, Pusher will have you gripped from beginning to end.
